Retail Execution blog dots divider

At the end of the day, a retail leader's primary goal is simple: sell products and keep customers coming back for more. Store execution software makes reaching that goal easier than ever, and efficiently for every team member and task. This post covers some of the features that make retail execution software a must-have industry trend.

What is store execution software? 

Retail is a competitive industry, regardless of the product being sold. Whether a leader oversees 12 or 200 locations, store execution software provides seamless management tools that unite a disconnected workforce. It can help with:

  • Territory management and scheduling
  • Time and mileage tracking
  • Document and file sharing
  • Real-time project status and work activities
  • Retail audits
  • Item management tools for orders and returns
  • Photo verification for tasks completed
  • Training and resource allocation
  • Advanced analytics and business intelligence

All of these features allow for better visibility of what’s happening in the field. And improving this insight leads to meaningful retail collaboration and better compliance. In fact, Movista’s store execution software can be tied to a 33% lift in employee productivity and a rate of 98.5% successful on-time project completion.

Better productivity leads to opportunity, which is why Movista users report a 500% increase in project count. That’s a serious boost, but the principle is simple. When things are running smoothly, teams can jump seamlessly and intuitively from project to project.

Manage every step with store execution software 

Store execution software allows for success through oversight. Stop workflow disruptions before they happen! Here’s a peek at how it all becomes possible when a team invests in retail execution management software.

Strategize

Studies show that brands have eight seconds or less to make an impression on consumers. With this statistic in mind, retail strategy becomes more important than ever! Once retail leaders develop a winning merchandising plan, it’s important to make sure it comes to fruition.

Store execution software allows store leaders to run ideas by fellow managers for collaboration or get tasks right to the teams in the field. From planograms to supporting documents, all of the information necessary will be right there for those teams.

Communicate

Communication is key to getting the job done right. After a manager uploads a plan, the team can communicate with leadership and other team members easily with store execution software. Questions and concerns can be addressed right away, leaving little room for error when it comes time for execution. Those same tasks can also be sent to third-party vendors as well.

Execute

Take it all in with features that allow a retail leader to become omnipresent. Photo verification provides real-time proof that a job has been completed. Plus, managers have the ability to provide feedback before the team member walks away from a display.

With retail execution management software, store managers and brand leadership can get the same level of insight as if they were standing right there. With this, a manager can always know whether a task is complete or needs a little extra attention. These insights allow for seamless strategy execution from start to finish.

Analyze

Even when the first task is done, there’s still more to do. Robust store execution software allows leaders to run retail store audits using key performance indicators (KPIs) to see what’s working and what’s not.

With one shared platform for data and goal setting, teams can plan around better optimization in the future.
